Test automation – cost-effective IT system testing

Highly productive software plays a key role in most companies. All over the world, many central workflows are based on sophisticated IT systems. This means that software quality is an important factor, because unstable applications and faulty software architecture not only jeopardise internal workflows but often lead to additional costs and harm the company’s image.

Highly productive software plays a key role in most companies. All over the world, many central workflows are based on sophisticated IT systems. This means that software quality is an important factor, because unstable applications and faulty software architecture not only jeopardise internal workflows but often lead to additional costs and harm the company’s image. But testing complex IT systems is seldom part of their own core business. Our SQS consultants will assist you with the automation of time-consuming but crucial test runs and processes. Our services in the field of Test Automation include strategic advice on the choice of the optimum software testing tools, as well as the actual execution of automated tests. With SQS, you will save valuable time and avoid unpleasant budget overruns.

 

To maintain the fault-free operation of complex IT systems, you need a specially tailored test management process. However, the made-to-measure setup and execution of manual tests is both time-consuming and cost-intensive. Automated software tests represent a less costly solution. Test runs that have to be performed in frequently recurring procedures are especially suitable for this purpose. Individual steps, such as pre- and post-processing, should also be automated. The unbeatable advantage is that you make substantial cost savings and permanently reduce the burden on your specialist departments.

 

 

In order to identify the best possible test automation for your system, our consultants choose appropriate testing tools for your IT environment. With the right tools, all testing stages can be automated – from preparation to execution and analysis. If the “toolbox” is carefully prepared, it will be possible to achieve a wide range of improvements, by means of automated software tests. These improvements include reduced costs and development risks, improved software quality and shorter product roll-out times.
